Product Description
Approximately 300 most frequently used Spanish verbs are presented, one verb per page, arranged alphabetically, fully conjugated, and identified by the English infinitive form. Books in this series are smaller and shorter versions of Barron's 501 Verbs series. They make handy quick-reference sources for language students, teachers, and translators.

Two thumbs up! September 21, 2008
This is the pocket version of the Barron's 501 Spanish Verbs. The layout is exactly the same, but with 200 less verbs. Like the bigger 501 Spanish Verbs, it provides an explanation and examples on the different tenses and their usages.
The reason that I bought this book was that my 501 Spanish Verbs was getting ripped up from carrying it around everywhere. Because this book is so much smaller than the 501 Spanish Verbs, I'm more inclined to carry it around with me when I go traveling.
If you need to do constant drills to remember the Spanish verbs, this is the book to carry around. If you're a fan of 501 Spanish Verbs, you'll like this as a "pocket" reference book.
Another Excellent book by Barrons that you can carry with you anywhere September 18, 2008
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RXKHCQO0FOKYQ I recommend using this book with the other Barron's book in this series called Spanish Grammar (Barron's Verb Series).
Best Spanish Verbs Book May 31, 2008
This is the best Spanish verbs book for beginning or intermediate students because it has about 300 of the most frequently used verbs with all the tenses, and it is of a size and weight to easily fit in a crowded backpack, briefcase, etc. 99 out of 100 verbs that you need to check the tense on will be in this book.

This is a quck reference card intended as a companion to the Barron's book -- 501 Verbs. It is not sufficient on its own. However it is a very dense compilation of essentials, much more easily accessed than having to dig through the 501 or similar grammar books when one is first learning the ropes and framework of Spanish.
I used this card very, very frequently for my first month of independent spanish study. I greatly appreciated having a compact source of key things I needed to read over and over while trying to form a landscape view of this language. I am still pulling it out often to review key points. I am now at the start of month #3.
On one side of the card (3 pages worth when unfolded), it describes the purpose of each of the 7 simple tenses, the 7 compound tenses, the imperativo, the progressive forms, participles (Present and Past) as well as active versus passive voices. Key examples are given. On the other side is a very detailed conjugation plus English translation of a model verb (comer). Then the same table used in 501 is given for several strategically chosen regular and irregular verbs: dar, decir, estar, haber, hablar, hacer, ir and lavar.
The overall presentation of the card utilizes good graphics and color coded variations to assist in quickly finding the highlights. Without this feature, the very dense amount of information would be overwhelming -- but given the authors/publishers attention to detail -- I find it to be very user friendly.
The card is laminated and should be durable if kept reasonably protected in a notebook. Using it during my novice stage of exploring Spanish clearly saved a lot of wear and tear on my copy of 501 Verbs -- a resource needed indefinitely.
